What You Need To Know

    • Define your goal first. Cash flow, appreciation, or both will determine everything about your strategy

    • Investment property loans require 20 to 25% down, higher rates, and stricter reserves than a primary home loan

    • Insurance and property taxes in South Florida are the two expenses investors most commonly underestimate

    • There are loan options beyond conventional, including debt service coverage ratio loans that qualify based on rental income, not your personal income

    • The full guide covers 12 financing strategies, key metrics, and how to calculate your true return before you make an offer

    • Location drives everything. Proximity to employment, good schools, and transit determines your vacancy rate

    • Always confirm the homeowners association rental policy before you make an offer. Many communities in South Florida prohibit rentals entirely

    • A bad tenant costs far more than a vacancy. Screen thoroughly every single time

    • House hacking a duplex or triplex is one of the fastest wealth-building strategies available to first-time investors

    • The full guide covers everything from analyzing your first rental to scaling into multi-family and building a portfolio

    • Not every condo can be rented. Confirm the rental policy, any caps, and minimum lease terms before you fall in love with a unit

    • Short-term rental rules vary dramatically by city. What is allowed in one neighborhood may be banned two streets over

    • Gross revenue looks impressive until you see the real operating costs. Model conservatively before you commit

    • A building's financial health matters as much as the unit itself. Underfunded reserves and special assessments can kill your returns

    • The full guide breaks down licensing, seasonality, tax treatment, and how to run long-term vs. short-term numbers side by side

    • Set up your limited liability company before you close on your first investment, not after something goes wrong

    • The true cost of a vacancy goes far beyond one missed rent check. Price competitively and treat good tenants well

    • Depreciation, the 1031 tax-deferred exchange, and cost segregation are your most powerful tools for building after-tax wealth

    • Tracking net worth, not just monthly cash flow, is what separates investors who build real wealth from those who stay stuck at one property

    • The full guide covers asset protection, tax strategy, scaling your portfolio, and how to know when it is time to sell
